MSI Mystic light not working properly with DeepCool RF120 RGB case fan

[abhiwandering]

I have connected 2 Metallicgear Skiron RGB and 1 Deepcool RF120 RGB fan to JRGB1 header of MSI B660M Mortar motherboard. But with MSI Mystic light software only the SKiron fans are behaving properly, the deepcool one is not syncing with exact color of other two fans.

For example if the Skiron fans are red then deepcool one is blue. All three fans are behaving properly with lighting modes only the colors are not matching except White color.

What can be the issue here? I am really confused.

can JRGB1 handle three fans off the one header?

[abhiwandering]

I think so, JRGB1 is a12V header. So it should handle 3RGB lights. Though I am not an expert, but I think it should handle

[Bruce]

to prove the point, try each one, one at a time and see if the colours can be adjusted as expected.

@abhiwandering - any luck?

[abhiwandering]

@Bruce - No luck. I have tried only connecting the Deepcool fan to JRGB1, but its the same. From Mystic light if I am selecting Blue (R:0 G:0 B:255) then the fan is lighting up in green (R:0 G:255 B:0). If I am selecting Green (R:0 G:255 B:0) then fan is lighting up Red (R:255 G:0 B:0). It is like its taking the previous / compliment colors only, like there is a signal delay of some sorts. I haven’t seen such thing ever.

[Bruce]

this is probably a dumb question, but are you sure you are connecting to JRGB1 the correct way around?

[abhiwandering]

Yes, JRGB1 only. Rest are JRAINBOW ports which are 3 pin port for ARGB. I am using a inbuilt splitter cable of the case it self. Will get separate Coolermaster RGB splitter cable and try it again, hopefully in a few days

[Bruce]

OK, keep us posted.

@abhiwandering - any update?

[abhiwandering]

I tried with another 4 pin RGB splitter cable, its the same. I am starting to think that my particular Deepcool fan’s RGB is getting a signal delay and it might be specific to my particular item. Anyways thanks for the help

[Bruce]

any way to forget the JRGB1 port for now.
does the fan have an option to be used directly, that is, get its power from a normal mobo FAN header and gets it’s RGB controlling from elsewhere?

[abhiwandering]

The fan is getting power from MOBO fan header only. There is no issue with the fan spinning with pwm control. only issue is RGB syncing. I have tried adding it to inbuilt RGB controller button of cabinet, its the same.

[Bruce]

OK, let’s get some more eyes on this, for a new perspective.
